    Mga sirs, a couple of queries lang po.
    - Available po ba ang grounding kit kahit saan auto supply for honda 92 and how much?
    - Any recommended shops in bacoor / imus area who really know how to install a grounding kit properly?

    As described in this thread, alin po ba dito ang tamang procedures? Re: A Big Three Query

    TIA

    You don't need a shop to do it, just buy wires big enough for grounding purposes. Connect them from the battery (-) to the the metals that are intended to be connected to negative. Grounding wires are not intended to be long, cut them as short as possible as long as the can reach the bolts and wont obstruct mechanical movements.

    Sir, wala po kasing knowledge when it comes to electrical.

    I think yung HKS grounding kit has 5 wires, baka po pwede makahingi ng exact locations kung saan ikoconnect ang bawat end.

    Pakiconfirm naman po if this the correct procs.

    Wire #1: Battery negative <----> Cylinder head
    Wire #2: Battery negative <----> Chasis
    Wire #3: Cylinder head <----> Intake Manifold (Where exactly sa intake po ba dapat ibolt itong end na ito? Like in PH12 engine, kelangan bang baklasin ang air filter at sa ilalim nun ito dapat iturnilyo?)
    Wire #4: Intake Manifold <----> Chasis
    Wire #5: Intake Manifold <----> Alternator (Where exactly sa alternator po ba dapat ibolt itong end na ito? I read na may pagkasensitive daw tong sa alt, pag mali ang pinaglagyan ay may bad effect daw)

    Kung mabibigyan sana ng precise procedures baka magkalakas loob i-DIY na lang :-)

    I saw a grounding kit in one of the carshop at SM Bacoor costing 1K. Ang sabi for all types of car daw yun puede i-install. If DIY and buy my own the thick cable wires would it come cheaper ba by how much? Kasi yung grounding kit prepared na with o-ring ready for install na. wala bang sasabog may mali ang kabit ko? hehe TIA.

    Yeah, nakita ko rin yung sinasabi mong grounding kit sir, dun sa auto shop sa ground floor ng sm bacoor beside bpi. Paki-inform nalang sir kung san ka nagpakabit at anong grounding kit kinuha mo or kung bumili ka na lang ba ng own wires mo. Thanks

    GK + Upgraded Stock Ground without the Alternator wire upgrade



    big image --> http://i42.tinypic.com/335b9f5.jpg


    links na lang... madami at malalaki yung mga pics/images eh..



    materials:

    battery terminals - 250 pair sa DIY hardware or Handyman

    wires/cables:
    gauge #0 welding cable 150 per feet(for all stock/main grounds) - 2 feet lang pwede na..
    gauge #4 power cable/amp wire thin stranded- 120 per meter 100 lang to sa raon -
    yung bili kong 8 meters may sobra pa sa 8 points ko..
    merong mas mga mahal per meter na aftermarkets amp/sounds wires/cables..

    others:
    GK bracket/mount ay galing sa HKS copy na gk.. hanap kang pinakamura..
    hindi ko ginamit yung wires.. pinamigay ko na lang.. 500 php
    ring terminals (7.50 and 25 per piece), battery cover na rubber(50php)
    heat shrinkable wraps (90 and 100 per meter)
    zip ties, lighter (pang-init nung shrinkable wraps, etc..
    you can buy yang mga yan sa mga auto or audio shops, hardware, sa raon and internet(Sulit)

    prep:

    prepare na muna yung battery terminal..
    main ground cable at yung gk mount..
    yung bracket/mount nung gk wires ay binaluktot ko para ma-angulo paliko..

    Dasma lang me unfortunately ay ang dami ko ring nakalinyang DIY na
    hindi ko rin masimulan dahil marami pang materials na kulang at super
    busy rin ako... sa school break pa ko ng anak ko siguro makakaluwag...

    at huwag kang matakot... wala kang masisira diyan.. basta yung negative
    lang ng battery ang involve... kahit huwag mo ng pakialaman muna yung
    positive side... the task is very basic... gagawa ka lang ng extension nung
    battery as ground coz mostly yung mga electricals natin runs on ground also..
    kaya imo importante rin yang gk lalo na sa mga lumang sasakyan..

    all i can help you now is this... shops where i bought my items..

    auto-well trading - isa sa mga suking auto shop ko..
    halos tapat nung mall sa kanto ng Salitran..
    tabi-tabi yung auto shop duon pero sila lang
    yung may garahe at bagong renovate yung shop..
    dito ko nabili..
    Gauge #0 cable, solid or makakapal at malalaki na ring terminals
    na para sa Gauge #0 welding cable pamalit sa stock grounds
    at sa gk mount.. yung red rubber battery terminal cover..
    puro dito ko nabili.. may mga small ring terminal din sila ata..

    sa tapat na mall naman ay meron ding battery terminal
    na tulad ng sa akin... yung sakin sa handyman ko nabili..
    meron sa robinson or walter dasma.. sa mga mini malls na
    rin na yan puwede kang makabili ng mga maninipis naman
    na ring terminal para duon sa mga cable... you can buy
    a good standard na maliliit pero medyo makakapal sa auto shop
    and hardware store sa tapat naman ng yazaki anabu imus..
    pero try mo rin muna sa auto-well kung meron din sila..

    yung mga gauge#4 or gauge#6 (your choice) ay sa marzan3
    imus ko nabili.. yung malapit sa philhealth.. may magaganda ring
    battery at ring terminal duon.. gauge #4 yung sa akin.. brown cable..
    pang sounds na mga cable yan.. sounds kasi specialty ng marsan3..

    yung mga shrinkable tube na ibat-ibang kulay at laki ay sa may deeco
    dasma/pala-pala.. yung paglagpas ng robinson dasma at sm dasma..
    papuntang silang..

    yung HKS copy grounding kit ay sa Sulit.. saled at 500 pesos..
    yung GK mount lang yung ginamit ko.. yung mga cable nya
    kasi ay ampaw.. makikita mo laman kung babaklasin mo.. walang kuwenta..
    that's it... ano pa nga ba heheh.. btw.. last time akong dumaan sa deeco
    ay halos wala ng stock nung shrinkable wraps at yung ring terminal pala na
    para sa starter ay need mong lakihan yung butas ng kaunti.. malaki kasi yung
    turnilyo nya... ano pa ba... kung mapapadaan ka sa deeco raon ay marami
    duong stock ng shrinkable wraps na iba't-ibang kulay.. kung trip mo lang..

    this is really a basic DIY.. kaunting imagination at tiyaga lang talaga.. don't rush..
    3 days bago ko nakumpleto yung sa akin eh.. busy kasi eh.. sinisingit ko lang..
    unlike ito sa next DIY ko na upgrade sa wirings sa headlights, foglights and horns
    na involve na both positive and negative.. pag may mali may uusok heheh.. kaya
    sa bakasyon ko na titirahin para mapag-aralan mabuti at no rush mode na rin..

    sa grounding kit.. isang side lang.. puro negative/earth/ground..
    just follow the points/distribution ay wala ka namang masisira diyan...
    so diskarte lang at kaunting imagination.. pramis.. dali lang at yakang-yaka mo yan..
    hth..
